  • Acoustic Immunosensing of Exosomes Using a Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Monitoring
    Acoustic immunosensing of exosomes using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring. Jugal Suthar,y,z Edward S. Parsons,{ Bart W. Hoogenboom,{,x Gareth R. Williams,y and Stefan Guldin∗,z yUCL School of Pharmacy, University College London, 29-39 Brunswick Square, Bloomsbury, London, WC1N 1AX, United Kingdom zDepartment of Chemical Engineering, University College London, Torrington Place, London, WC1E 7JE, United Kingdom {London Centre for Nanotechnology, 17-19 Gordon Street, London, WC1H 0AH xDepartment of Physics and Astronomy, University College London, Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Exosomes are endocytic lipid-membrane bound bodies with potential to be used as biomarkers in cancer and neurodegenerative disease. The limitations and scarcity of current exosome characterisation approaches has led to a growing demand for trans- lational techniques, capable of determining their molecular composition and physical properties in physiological fluids. Here, we investigate label-free immunosensing, using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D), to detect exosomes by ex- ploiting their surface protein profile. Exosomes expressing the transmembrane protein 1 CD63 were isolated by size-exclusion chromatography from cell culture media. QCM-D sensors functionalised with anti-CD63 antibodies formed a direct immunoassay towards CD63-positive exosomes, exhibiting a limit-of-detection of 1.7x108 and 1.1x108 exosome sized particles (ESPs)/ ml for frequency and dissipation response respectively, i.e., clin- ically relevant concentrations. Our proof-of-concept findings support the adoption of dual-mode acoustic analysis of exosomes, leveraging both frequency and dissipation monitoring for use in diagnostic assays. Introduction Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are heterogenous, biomolecular structures enclosed by a lipid bilayer.

They have been conjugated to a pyrrolo[2,1- c][1,4]benzodiazepine (PBD) molecule to produce C8-linked PBD−MPB hybrids that can stabilize GC-rich DNA by up to 13-fold compared to AT-rich DNA. Some have subpicomolar IC50 values in human tumor cell lines and in primary chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells, while being up to 6 orders less cytotoxic in the non-tumor cell line WI38, suggesting that key DNA sequences may be relevant targets in these ultrasensitive cancer cell lines.

Office - +44-207-898-4494 (note: no fax service). Mobile - +44-7950-494718 ABSTRACT International trade in medicinal herbal products is growing, while value chains are becoming more complex and governed by a range of public and private standards. There is a debate over the extent to which phytomedicine production can be beneficial for farmers in low and middle income countries. More generally, there are varied views about the extent to which small farmers are disadvantaged by stringent public health and private consumer standards in northern markets for agricultural products. This paper proves a comparative analysis of value chains, using case studies of turmeric production in India. It marries a qualitative investigation of turmeric producing sites in India with an investigation into the chemical quality of various turmeric products. The aim of the paper is to understand the way that varied structure and governance of value chains changes the benefits to both producer and consumer.

  • Clinical Lecturer in Paediatrics Job Description
    UCL SCHOOL OF LIFE AND MEDICAL SCIENCES UCL FACUTY OF POULATION HEALTH SCIENCES INSTITUTE OF CHILD HEALTH CLINICAL LECTURER IN PAEDIATRICS JOB DESCRIPTION INTRODUCTION The UCL Institute of Child Health (ICH) The mission of the UCL Institute of Child Health is to improve the health and well-being of children, and the adults they will become, through world-class research, education and public engagement. This strategy has been informed by the insights gained from visits to six other internationally excellent children’s academic medical centres and by detailed discussions internally and with our external partners, including GODH, GOSH Children’s Charity, the wider UCL community, UCL Partners and funding bodies. The UCL Institute of Child Health, together with its clinical partner Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, forms the largest concentration of children’s health research outside North America. In 2013 ICH developed a new academic strategy which focuses on five scientific programmes: • Genetics and Genomic Medicine • Population, Policy and Practice • Developmental Biology and Cancer • Developmental Neurosciences • Infection, Immunity and Inflammation Four key principles underpin these programmes and the academic strategy: Interdisciplinarity. ICH will facilitate the best scientists, from all relevant academic and clinical disciplines, to work together to address fundamental questions to improve the health of children. Accelerating translation. ICH will support the rapid translation of findings from basic discoveries relevant to understanding of health and disease, to clinical studies, more directly aimed at improving the clinical care of children. We will also support “reverse translation” from observations in clinical and population studies to basic studies which address mechanisms of health and disease.

This study examines whether reported adherence to AEDs is related to variables identified in the NICE Medicines Adherence Guidelines as being important to adherence: perceptual factors (AED necessity beliefs and concerns), practical factors (limitations in capability and resources) and perceptions of involvement in treatment decisions. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of people with epilepsy receiving AEDs.
